I once heard someone call out to their dog Strider at a pet store. It's a very cool name- especially for large, slender dogs.

As for other names:

Male: Beorn, Nori, Dior, Elros, Elu, Mīm,

Female: Elenna, Narya, Nessa, Vana

Hobbit names make great pet names and most aren't immediately recognized as Tolkien: Milo, Bowman, Elanor, Fosco, etc.

Places also make great names: Hollin, Anduin, Rhun, Andor, Arda, Aros, Lorien, Taras, etc.

So I got to thinking about Brandybuck, Bracegirdle, Bolger, Gamgee, Maggot, and a good number of other Hobbit surnames- and how they seem rather doggishly appropriate.
Actually, I really like Gamgee as a dog name.
